The Battlefield Memorial Park honors the memory of the 8000+ troops, from three armies, who took part in one of the bloodiest battles of the Revolutionary War, the infamous Battle of Savannah in 1779. More than 800 of these brave soldiers were killed or seriously wounded. The battle took place when around 2,500 British defenders took on the 5,500 allied French and American forces to retain control of the city. Each of the dead or wounded soldiers is represented by a granite stone – 800 of these have been placed in ranks of ten to represent the attacking columns. The park offers guided tours
